# cnspy_relative_pose_evaluation

A python3 package for evaluating relative pose measurements between two spatial frames in order to assess the accuracy.
The baseline (ground truth) relative pose can be computed from two recorded 3D trajectories of the moving bodies and known extrinsics to the sensors.
These can be specified in a single configuration file, see [config.yaml](./test/sample_data/config.yaml)


The following evaluations can be conducted:

| Describtion    | Images |
|:---------:|:---:|
| Pose Plot (left: measured, right: gt) | ![](./doc/img/Pose_ID1_to_2.png) |
| Pose Error Plot (left: position, right: orientation, top: meas, middle: error, bottom: nees)  | ![](./doc/img/Pose_Errors_ID1_to_2.png) |
| Range (gt vs. measured) outliers removed      | ![](./doc/img/Ranges_ID1.png) |
| Range Sorted (gt vs. measured) outliers removed      | ![](./doc/img/Range_Sorted_ID1.png) |
| Range Error (measured-gt) outliers removed      | ![](./doc/img/Range_Errors_ID1.png) |
| Range Error Histogram (filtered) and distribution | ![](./doc/img/Range_Error_Histograms_ID1.png) |
| Angle (gt vs. measured) outliers set to zero      | ![](./doc/img/Angle_ID1.png) |
| Angle Error (measured-gt) outliers removed      | ![](./doc/img/Angle_Errors_ID1.png) |
| Angle Error Histogram (filtered) and distribution | ![](./doc/img/Angle_Error_Histograms_ID1.png) |
| Statistics | [statistics.yaml](./doc/statistics.yaml) |


## Installation

Python 3.6 or greater is required. Inside this repo's directory, you may run
```
pip3 install .
```
or
``
pip3 install -e .
``
which installs the package in-place, allowing you make changes to the code without having to reinstall every time.

**This package is still in development. Once stable it should be sufficient to run:**
```commandline
pip3 install cnspy_relative_pose_evaluation
```
## Run from terminal

* RelPoseMeasEvaluationTool 
* RelPoseMeasEvaluation
* RelPose_ROSBag2CSV
* ROSBag_TrueRelPoses
* ROSBag_Poses2RelPose

## YAML configuration file

YAML configuration file is in the form of:
```yaml
# relative pose of the moving sensors with respect to the body frame (pose from BODY to SENSOR)
sensor_positions: {0:[0, 0, 0], 1:[0, 0, 0], 2:[0, 0, 0]}
sensor_orientations: {0:[1.0, 0, 0, 0], 1:[1.0, 0, 0, 0], 2:[1.0, 0, 0, 0]}
# true pose of the body
true_pose_topics: {0: "/uav10/vrpn_client/raw_pose", 1: "/uav11/vrpn_client/raw_pose", 2: "/uav12/vrpn_client/raw_pose"}
# topics of the relative pose measurement
relpose_topics: {0: "/uav10/data_handler/uvdar_fcu", 1: "/uav11/data_handler/uvdar_fcu", 2: "/uav12/data_handler/uvdar_fcu"}

```

## Important notes for the NEES computation

The covariance of the measurements are assumed to represent the position uncertainty in meters and in the origin of reference frame of the observer, e.g. the camera. The covariance of the measured orientation is assumed to be in radian representing the uncertainty about the roll-pitch-yaw angles about the x-y-z-axes in zyx order (Rz(y)*Ry(p)*Rx(r)) of the body frame (local), thus `EstimationErrorType.type5`: 
* **TRUE = EST + ERR for positions R(3);** 
* **TRUE = EST \oplus ERR for rotations SO(3);**
* **global position error, local orientation error;**.

## Usage

```commandline
usage: RelPoseMeasEvaluationTool.py [-h] [--result_dir RESULT_DIR] [--bagfile BAGFILE] --cfg CFG [--save_plot] [--show_plot] [--verbose] [--extra_plots] [--keep_outliers] [--filter_histogram] [--max_range MAX_RANGE] [--max_angle MAX_ANGLE]

RelPoseMeasEvaluationTool: evaluation the measured relative poses

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --result_dir RESULT_DIR
                        directory to store results [otherwise bagfile name will be a directory]
  --bagfile BAGFILE     input bag file
  --cfg CFG             YAML configuration file describing the setup: {sensor_positions:{<id>:[x,y,z], ...}, sensor_orientations:{<id>:[w,x,y,z], ...}, relpose_topics:{<id>:<topic_name>, ...}, true_pose_topics:{<id>:<topic_name>, ...}
  --save_plot           saves all plots in the result_dir
  --show_plot           blocks the evaluation, for inspecting individual plots, continuous after closing
  --verbose
  --extra_plots         plots: timestamps, ranges + angles (sorted + unsorted + error),
  --keep_outliers       do not apply the max. thresholds on the error
  --filter_histogram    filters the error histogram, such that the fitted normal distribution is computed on the best bins only
  --max_range MAX_RANGE
                        max. range that classifies them as outlier
  --max_angle MAX_ANGLE
                        max. range that classifies them as outlier
